Is it possible to call and process the result of an on-chain view inside an off-chain view that is stored inside contract metadata?

    Yes, you can call on-chain views from off-chain views. It uses run_code RPC endpoint.

Yes, you can call on-chain views from off-chain views. off-chain views use run_code RPC endpoint, which runs some instructions against a given context provided by you, similar to calling an entrypoint.

You can access onchain views through run_view RPC on Octez Not very well documented but you have info in this PR https://gitlab.com/tezos/tezos/-/merge_requests/4810

You can use it via Taquito also https://tezostaquito.io/docs/lambda_view

  • i'm looking to call an off-chain view and have that off-chain view call an on-chain view in a totally different contract and process the result

  • I'm curious about the use case? Cause onchain views can call other onchain views. Offchain views are overset by onchain views for most use cases. Main interest is custom views when you wanna create a view on a older contract

  • use case shouldn't matter on a technical forum, but in this instance i have a utility contract that provides a generic but computationally complex service for other contracts to consume via an on-chain view and i would also like to use this computation inside an off-chain view without having to re-implement
